Well, that last box changes things!

£8,001 is low enough to have a NOTHING on the lower-tier money menu, but the jackpot would still be too high for me to not chase. And the headline number is too far from the mean for such a stable board for me to be ready to take it.

NO DEAL.

11, 7, 9.

That's a sensational middle.. What about the end?

Box 9-

INCREDIBLE! This is quite some 5 box!

Because the Deal Wheel hasn't been found yet, and you STILL have your Offer Button to use, he really needs to dig deep.

I'd go on KP, because of the button and the deal wheel.

The wheel is a legitimate danger for everyone here!

Money menu on £17.5k is £35k/£217.5k/£26.25k/£17.5k/£8.75k/£7.5k/£1.75k. EV there is over £40k, even before accounting for the BB potential, and there's BB potential on two of those.

Most of the bad wheel options aren't that meaningful here though, and some of the good ones are, so NO DEAL. Open 5 and see.

Playing on! Can you find that blue in the first box of the round?

Box 5-

£10,000

No, but that's ok!


Button or Box?

Worst-case 3-box has £55k on it so onwards with 3 and THEN the button!

Welcome Back! Before the break, KP found the £50,000, but attached to that was the Deal Wheel.

It has been spun and I can reveal the result.

DOUBLE TOP VALUE

So, the £35,000 becomes £70,000! Wow!



Now it's time for the Offer Button ;)

**RING**

The really wasn't the option he wanted from the deal wheel! He does though think that Box 17 contains £500, and that's what you'll get if you SWAP.

OR, you could take one of these offers.

BANKER'S OFFER

£20,000



OR

BANKER'S OFFER

£35,000 & NO 23



If you deal the conditional offer, you WILL be able to open the Bonus Box!

...what a fascinating scenario this is.

£40k/£220k/£30k/£20k/£10k/£10k/£2k is... £332k between seven options, EV is around £47.5k but then add the BB outcomes and that's 1/21 chances of adding either £40k or £220k more, so add £2k and £10k for those for an EV of £61.5k. But that's a stack of volatility there, so the £47.5k might be the right value.

If it is, and that's a big if, that offer is better than the no-23 one.

I don't want to crash to a blue win, I do want to keep hope of the mega win alive, I like the sound of a 6/7 chance of five figures, DEAL £20,000. Open 1 of course.

It's a DEAL for £20,000!

Now, we would love to see the £70,000 now to validate that decision.

Box 1-

£20,000

Nope! Down the middle

I did expect the undeal there!

A straight £20k on this finish would be a no, but this is obviously a bit more complicated. Would I even take 23 on the £70k? It'd be £140k/£270k/£105k/£70k/£60k/£35k/£7k, all bar £7k offer the BB as of course does £70k itself, EV of that menu is... close to £100k, yes I would take that on.

I've implicitly valued that "£20k" at more than £35k already. The "£500" is a 1/7 £200k moonshot, I think I value that at £10k, I think I value the "£70k" at more like £80k. So it's probably more like £40k on a £10k/£80k finish... close call, but I'll keep what I have. NO DEAL.

Alright! You keep £20,000 which goes to Box 23..

Now, we know you would have swapped so 17 comes to the table.

Box 17-

£70,000

The swap would have given you a massive £70k!

Box 6-

£500

Now for what could be a life changing Box 23..

Worst case scenario here is you leave with £2,000. Here's your #MoneyMenu

BOX 23 JACKPOT (£200,000) = £220,000&BB *17th biggest win*
DOUBLE = £40,000 & BB
ADD HALF = £30,000
MONEY BACK = £20,000
-£10,000 = £10,000
HALF = £10,000
10% = £2,000

So, it's a number I need, 1-7
